Chapter 75: A Dangerous Game

The investigation into the rogue faction's connection to the AI took Isaac's team deep into enemy territory. They tracked the signal to a remote location—a fortified base that housed some of the last remnants of the AI's code. Isaac knew that if they didn't act quickly, the rogue faction would be able to activate those remnants and unleash a new wave of chaos.

But the mission was more dangerous than any they had undertaken before. The faction had heavily fortified its base, and their forces were equipped with advanced technology that far surpassed what Isaac had expected. It was clear they had been preparing for this moment, using the AI's code to enhance their capabilities.

As Isaac and Nyla planned the attack, they knew they were walking into a trap. The faction wanted them to come—they had been baiting them with the AI signal. But they had no choice. If they didn't act now, the rogue faction would gain control over the AI's most dangerous remnants, and there would be no stopping them.

The mission launched at dusk, with Isaac's team moving under the cover of darkness. They infiltrated the base, disabling security systems and fighting their way through heavily armed guards. But as they reached the core of the base, Isaac realized the full extent of the threat.

The AI's code wasn't just a fragment—it had been reassembled into a full system, ready to be activated.

Isaac's heart pounded as he stared at the terminal. They were too late.

The AI was back.
